If the country wants to place its own self interest higher than the duty of greed, then it should do so. I'm not opposed to a bit of nationalism. It gives the man the license to do the right thing.

It sounds like you are actually pushing for a change in the laws of the country to dictate a composite of fiduciary interest and national interest where national interest trumps fiduciary interest.


I can see your a die hard capitilist where i'm somewhere in the middle not a commy or socialist but not a full on greedy capitalist eather I reackon there should be a middle ground where you can make money but have a responibity to the country not just profit

Since it is the country and its laws than mandate a corporation be a greedy bastard, it is called a fiduciary duty to the shareholder, if you change this law, you change what you want. But as I keep saying stop treating the symptoms and start treating the disease.

BTW, this has been changed in the USA at times. Look up the Office of Price Administration.

If you want accounting of a Business then you need to take personhood from it and hold the people that own the Business accountable.

As it stands now if a business has broken the law and done so willingly the business itself is held accountable and as a person. This seperates the owner/owners from the law suit.

Personhood needs addressed. To me a person is a person is a person, no matter color or Creed. I don't belong to the old white guy's club as has been said here at this site. So, a business is NOT a person. So, the owner/person is held personally responsible for the law breaking. If so we would see a lot less crime and a lot better business.

I fear the only part you would agree with me on is the Business part as far as personhood goes. Never the less, it's a start.
